Like someone else said, definately get him neutered, you don't have to wait until he's 6 months old, you can get it done earlier. Do you know how soon you can get them fixed? Our local spay and neuter clinic will do them if they are at least 2 pounds and at least 8 weeks old. They are doing them much younger than they used to! We have neutered rescues really young, but they have had problems with *I think* their urethra when they get older. I would wait until 6 months, 4 at minimum. Just my experience.
Yep 8 to 12 weeks just seems way to young to be spaying are neutering, I'll just stick to the 5 to 6 months old.. | |

Location: Armuchee, GA, NW section of Ga | Just an update on the barn cat.....little guy is now named Mickey, because he looks like a small hairy mouse. And with the recent cold weather, DH made the decision he should be brought into the house rather than a barn.....So, in less than a week, this homeless little guy has not only gained a warm place to live, lots of food but a loving place in a nice home with a mom & dad who think he is just too cute. Our older cat doesn't share in this nor does our parrot, but with time perhaps they will accept him too. | |

What a lucky little guy---it's more than sad to imagine what his life would have been without you. | |
